About

Join spooky storyteller Shane Ibbs for a lantern lit stroll to The Wild Wood and hear tales of things that go bump in the night!

Creep past The Screaming Oak and watch out for The Witch's Hat tree as you're taken back to a time when ghosts, ghouls and fairie folk called Markshall Estate home. Listen to stories of woodland nymphs and wicked witches, before gathering round the firepit for seasonal snacks. Enjoy a hot spiced apple juice to warm up those spooky shivers.

Be sure to wear warm layers and sturdy shoes for your walk to the woods, you never know who might be waiting to spook you!

Suitable for families of all ages.
